5.0 out of 5 stars Beguiling and Beautiful Music From UK Folks Best Kept Secret, 25 April 2005
By 
S. Rogan "Shaun" (London England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Let No Man Steal Your Thyme (Audio CD)
There are times when you take the plunge and get rewarded with a record that confounds your expectations and implores you to write a review.Such is this exquisitely compiled 2 cd set of Shelagh McDonalds recorded output. This womans voice is to die for. Think Nick Drake mixed with Sandy Denny and you are getting close to the evocative delivery and melancholic tinge to Shelagh McDonalds voice. Having first met her on the excellent "Gather Up The Mushrooms" compilation, I was pressed to investigate further and once again Sanctuary have delivered with this amazing value for money set. Shelaghs own story is one of seemingly massive personal tragedy (she disappeared shortly after completing her second lp "Stargazer" which is included in full here). But to simply apportion interest in this release as an exercise in "where are they now?" Syd Barrett style voyeurism would be totally wide of the mark. Listen to "Liz's Song" and hear UK folk at its best. A worthy addition to any music lovers collection. Buy.

(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Let No Man Steal Your Thyme (Audio CD)
I was hooked into buying this album after hearing her rendition of "Let No Man Steal Your Thyme" on Mike Harding a couple years ago, and have been listening to the album on & off ever since. Personally, I don't rate her as better or worse than Sandy Denny, they just both have slightly different styles (as for the suggestion further down that Sandy's voice is hard - what about Banks of the Nile?).

Stylistically the music alters throughout the album, and Let No Man Steal Your Thyme is probably the closest thing to trad folk on the album (and better than the Pentangle version). Of all the songs that, Dowie Dens Of Yarrow, Odyssey, Stargazer & Waiting For The Wind To Rise are my favourites. As others have said ad infinitum, if you like really good female folk singers, then this album is a must. Who knows what she would have achieved if she were still recording.

5.0 out of 5 stars Long lost gem, 16 July 2007
By 
This review is from: Let No Man Steal Your Thyme (Audio CD)
If you like Sandy Denny/Vashti Bunyan/Pentangle this is a great collection by an almost forgotten artist.
The nearest way I can pigeon-hole her albums would be "female Nick Drake during his Bryter Layter period".
The connection doesn't end there. The orchestration is by Robert Kirby who also did Nick Drakes 1st 2 albums.
This is singer songwriter music of the very highest quality.
If you think it may possibly be your thing - buy it - it will not disappoint.
My only criticism would be it that the CD's are mixed "a bit toppy"
The vinyl LP's are rare, a bit expensive, but the sound quality is absolutely superb. They are essential if you like her music. Steve Diggle
